A friend of mine asked me if I could do a statue of Big Al, the Alabama Crimson Tide mascot. Well, no. I am not well versed in organic modeling. And I couldn't find a pre-made file of Big Al, either. I couldn't really find even so much as an elephant that just said "Crimson Tide." What I did find was this elephant coat hanger by antontre. Using that, coupled with my own creation, I came up with this very nice plaque that any die hard Tide fan would be proud to display.
I have included two three models. One is just the Alabama "A" with a banner draped around it and "Crimson Tide" printed on the banner on a "wooden-type" plaque. The other model incorporates the plaque with the elephant for a more three-dimensional effect. After looking at it more, I decided that the elephant was too small, so I have added another version with a larger elephant.
I will be printing this this week (when my white filament gets here) and I will update the photo with a picture of the actual print then.
Notes:
This will need to be printed with supports enabled everywhere.
